Hell Gee Dub still doesn't talk candidly about his alcohol induced times as an adult nor have we heard a PEEP about his daughters since term one....except one is getting married.

So Bush's military service record is relevant but Obama's actions during the same times are not? You look down more upon somebody for serving in the national guard than for doing cocaine, I guess I just don't understand the double standard. If military service is truly important to you then I suppose you'll vote for McCain.

Moe...u know the scary part...is that there are people STILL trying to fit that square pegged peice you just said into a round hole of truth....
There are those who are still trying to fit his middle name to Muslim ties...

Dude...Obama was IN HIGH SCHOOL when his occurences happened....like you didn't do stupid things in high school...Bush was a grown @ssed man shirking service!!!!!
Bush was ALSO a grown adult and in various official positions when his alcoholism took place....
At least Obama had teh WISDOM to learn from it....Bush apparently never passed whatever he learned from it down to his daughters...
So given the 2....I say double standard doesn't work, here.....

I didn't do drugs... it puts money in the hands of street gangs and cartels, alcohol doesn't do that.
I would hardly call being drunk a few times and getting a DUI alcoholism, just bad luck. Nor would I consider his daughters alcoholics just because they got caught drinking underage, if you can show evidence to their being alcoholics I'd be interested.
Still, you'll be voting for the guy with the better service record though?

PhiGam...you are borderlining on twit-dom ok?
Like father like daughter...being the pres and having a daddy with CIA ties makes it really easy to keep this kid's problems on the quiet...what say you?
Especially since said daddy helped pres duck out of duty with little penalty...
I also hardly cite getting into trouble as a teen and then learning from those mistakes hardly a reason why I should hold something against someone running for president.
Let me guess...you were the perfect teen?
...you were an angel?
You NEVER EVER got into any type of any parts of any kind of trouble?
Not even once?
HOW BORING !!
You now what, the day a squeaky clean politician pops up, with nary a blemish, be afraid.
I got a stone for you if you got the 'nads to cast them.

<----got in trouble twice for staying after school to hang out with some buddies instead of going to an afterschool program. NEVER used drugs EVER in my life. NEVER drank before the age of 21 except for a sip of red wine at a family dinner. I was pretty squeaky clean and, I guess, boring.
What's really the point of people discussing Bush and his daughters...or Obama's admissions of drug use? Just another thing to keep us entertained as this boring campaign goes on? I wish the election would happen and someone would take office already. I'm starting not to care who takes office. Yawn.

So you'll be voting for a recovered druggie over a man with a valiant service record, yes or no? How important is somebody's service record to you?
P.S. I wasn't a perfect teen, but I've never done drugs because I believe they hurt our country immensely.

Nittany...I don't think they have caught it...if they have been paying attention to any of my posts since January, they would have gotten it by now.

I never got into much trouble as a teen..but I had my issues...never did drugs, drank twice...didn't agree with me. Was also around other teens who did stuff got into trouble and became some very respectable adults... saw some kids that were also goodie 2 shoes who made a mess out of life...and guess what....THAT'S LIFE !
So, you ready for that stone to cast now ?

Not my fault your own reading skills over the last month (and appraently since you didn't read my last post) have been lacking.
